  You may have trouble using that directly with POV-Ray because according
to my calculations it would consume about 3.4 gigabytes of RAM. (In a
64-bit system with significantly more RAM than that it might work ok.)

  That will most definitely be unusable as-is in most system, as it consumes
something like 14 gigabytes of RAM (hence you can only use it in a 64-bit
system if you have more RAM than that.)
